I stayed there last year for 2 weeks. Moved after those two weeks because I had bites all over my body!EWWWWWW
The hospital told me that those bites are from bedbugs!It was my first stay in NY...so depressing!

August 2008, had a private room on the second floor, had a number of nasty bites on my arms and legs and torso.
I got a refund for 2 nights from the manager after much arguing and getting blamed for actually being bug-infested myself.

(Actually I am fairly sure I reported this to you guys right after returning home - well, right after freaking out when I realized what I would have to do in order to make sure any little hangers-on would be killed dead - but the site doesn't list any infestat

ion. In any case, here's is my report on the Lonely Planet message board from "the week after": http://www.lonelyplanet.com/thorntree/message.jspa?messageID=14571483 )
